on this deal. Is this one any good? And while I'm asking questions, I have verizon dsl, any tablet I should happen to get will work with it right? And I apologize in advance for asking dumb questions.

Anyhow, can I surf and email, fb, gw, etc. on this one?

Am I wasting 50 bucks, and should save it toward a different Android tablet that's a 3.0 or better? If you really think that, please tell me. If this is not a good name, or you wouldn't buy it I'd would appreciate your input. Thanks!

On the surface, it looks like a good deal. However, I'd Google the specific model and see if you can find any reviews before making a decision.

I agree, a basket of staples is always a good thing. When my neighbor lost her daughter I took coffee, creamer tea bags, cups and plates, napkins and cookies that could be eaten or frozen. She had a lot of family and friends who stopped by and said it was wonderful to be able to give them cookies and coffee but not have to go to the store for anything. I agree, pasta is usually well received by children and lasagna, ziti, mac and cheese, etc is good, and many can be frozen for later. This family will need help for a while, having only one adult left to care for two children while dealing with their own grief is hard. A certificate for pizza is always a good thing, or even gift cards for fast food or local restaurants. Homemade bread and cookies freeze well and can be saved for later. Whenever I baked bread, I sent a loaf next door to my neighbor, for a couple of months. I also sent a dozen fresh eggs from my "girls", or a loaf of quick bread or a plate of cookies or chips and salsa. I seldom made something "special", I just made a double batch of whatever I was making and sent it next door. That might be more "doable" with your own small children and another on the way! Annie

If you sealed it with an oil-based poly sealer or varnish, they will "amber" over time (just like oil-based polyurethaned wood floors). I would sand it and re-paint, this time using a water based sealer. Use multiple coats for protection, and make sure the sealer you choose is made for exterior applications.

Did they break ground yet? It is my understanding that you sign contracts, the builder puts it to attorney review which usually takes 2 weeks here. During this time, you go to the design center to pick the upgrades and while picking them, may have to put money down on them so that they can be ordered. I'm seeing a bunch of builders, KB Homes, Pulte, American West, Richmond, Summerlin, DRHorton, Lennar, Toll Brothers, Beazer, Engle, Centex with pricing jumping all over the place. Looking at those sites, some start off cheaper. It may be possible that they will move you to another cheaper location so that they don't lose you as a client and you don't lose your money. If they have not poured foundation or broken ground, it's possible they will change the model to a cheaper one if there is a cheaper one. I don't think all is lost. One never knows, depending on how far along this is. We just put a bid in on a house that the original people changed their minds by deciding to build on another lot. The house had granite in the kitchen, a faucet that was over $2,000 as well as things we didn't need. We were able to take some things out even though the sales lady wasn't sure if we could. We then figured out what the house was worth to us and placed a bid which was accepted. They may have pulled permits or poured foundation but also may be able to sell the house to someone else. There's another property that we were offered that we passed on. Last week it was being framed but still not sold. They are called quick move in homes and usually sell. Builders are hurting. Look at K. Hov's sale this weekend. While you may still qualify for a loan, you may not qualify for as much. They very well may work with you, so you should prepare for that. Getting into a community farther away with a less expensive base may be the only way you don't lose it all.

no your passcode was set up by who ever set up your router so no one else would have that info. Please tell me what went wrong when you tried it? you do need to install the program on a computer that is using that wifi router. When you download and install that little program it will come up with the info that looks just like the picture on that page you got it from. Did you get that that to come up. Tell me exactly what happened and maybe I can help. It is a very small simple program so it should work. What version of windows are you using? xp? vista? 7? You need to get your lookbook somewhere that it can connect to wifi, it needs the 2 big updates, as soon as you connect to wifi it will come up saying it found updates it will do one then right after that it will do the second, those will make it work much better. don't give up!! It is just like a computer when you turn it off and on it has to boot up so yes it does take some time when going on and off it is loading the system. there is another way to get your passcode but it takes accessing the router and my guess is you do not have that password either. That is why that program is the best way to do it. Is there anyplace you know of that who ever set up your router might have written down this info? It is info that they knew would be very important to keep. Possibly on the router manual or something?

Sorry I got here late and I have been scouring the web trying to find out which version of Android it has on it and if it is upgradable. I have finally found it has Android 1.6 and from what I read it is not upgradable, which is a real shame. It will not do much with the 1.6 Android system.

It can still be used for many things including reading books. and looking at pictures and listening to music it has quite a bit on it as it comes. You can use a usb or ethernet to it by way of a little adapter it comes with, it takes a mini sd card so you can store your books pics and tunes on there. It has a pretty low resolution so it will not be super sharp.

For the price you really can't lose much if you just wanted a basic device for reading and stuff. It does have wifi and you will be able to surf and all of that including email. Where you will have problems is that many many of the apps will not work on that early version, but some do.

These are older tablets from probably 2010 that is why they are putting them out there so cheap these days.

It is made by pandigital the same company that made the pandigital novel that I have. here is a link to the pdf manual for it you can read more of what it can do.

Manual

one thing this one has the resistive type touch screen so will be a harder touch for it, you use the tip of the finger or fingernail or us the stylus.

the over all reviews I have been reading are not real favorable.

In todays market I am recommending Android 2.3 and higher and the higher the better Android 4.0 may be out now I know it was close to ready.

So just depends on what you would want to use it for like I said.

I did not answer your verizon question, if you have a wireless router and a wireless network then yes any tablet will work, if you do not have a wireless router on your dsl you can easily add one on.

I wanted to answer you here also Raven. The reviews I found were pretty crappy also. I do have a wireless router, we have a desktop and a laptop. Desktop is on it's last legs. Will prob get another laptop for DH when it finally goes. I was interested in the tablets to take out and about instead of the laptop.

I'll def start looking for the visio you suggested. I really appreciate all your help. Thank you!!
